An off-duty coast guardsman was able to subdue and disarm a man, moments after he stabbed another person outside a bar in Arouca early on Saturday morning.
Police said the man got into an argument with a patron outside a bar on the Eastern Main Road, around 1.45 am when the suspect stabbed the victim in his lower midsection.
Passers-by took the wounded man to the Arima General Hospital where he was treated and transferred to another health facility where he underwent emergency surgery.
